2 Context and actors Needed to have a decision making tool at regional level Multiple databases were managed by different authorities Budget: subsidy required our cantonal parliament to issue debt Subsidy of 10% from Swiss Federal Office of the Environment Development partnership with the Zurich Canton Extension of the regional partnership with other swiss cantons (Zurich, Aargau, Thurgau, Lucern and Basel) Page 1

4 O Problems facing the authorities Comparing and Prioritizing risks arising from different activities (production plants, storage, road or rail transport, pipelines etc.) Risk estimations as well as the available data may differ considerably Cumulative risks For example air crash into hazardous facilities Transit transports are difficult to treat quantitatively Amounts, types of dangerous goods are not known, lack of truly reliable statistics Conflicts between risk-inducing activities, sitting and land-use planning New risk exposure situation near existing factories How much risk can we allow in a future industrial area Page 1

5 Domains of application Plants subject to the OMA (Swiss Ordinance on Major Hazards) (Seveso compatible) Railway installations (marshalling yards, dangerous goods) Roads with heavy traffic and highways (trafic of dangerous goods) Transport by pipelines (oil and gas) Confined use of pathogenic organisms (CO) in plants Aircraft crash into hazardous facilities Methodological framework the official Swiss OMA methodology (QRA quantified risk assessment) individual risk as developed by agencies in the UK and the Netherlands the methodology of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA 1996) used also in Italy by the Civil protection Page 5

12 Information architecture : data standardization Entreprise : EMAS defines 3 descriptive levels : (EU Commission decision of the ) Definition of 3 descriptive levels of a plant Organisation : a company, corporation, firm, enterprise, authority or institution, or part or combination thereof, that has its own functions and administrations Site : a distinct geographic location under the management control of an organisation covering activities, products and services Entity : site or subdivision, organisation, part or group of organisations, used for specific storage or production place in the site Page 12

24 Link among the layers of the cantonal cartographical server (SITG) : GIS facilitates the interpretation of data and of the final results. Accumulated risk layers lead to interesting, results, because several minor events accumulated at the same geographical site might result in a significant total risk (Fictious results) Page 24

25 Principal goal of the integration of aircraft risks To evaluate how the risks for different types of industry, in particular those dealing with dangerous chemicals, may increase due to aircraft operations inside the area of the canton of Geneva This objectives was achieved by : Performing a new complete risk assessment of the airport Adapting calculations and risk mapping production of an existing risk register of major hazard facilties of the Geneva canton Putting together by ICT the results and try to see if the airport air trafic risk has an influence of the existing industrial risk level of major hazard facilities Page 1

26 Integration of Airport risks in the risk register : STEP 1 Geneva airport risk mapping project : Global study of the Geneva airport air trafic on individual and collective risks Transformation of the global results in an hectometric raster of aircrash frequency STEP 2 Integration of the hectometric aircrash frequency in the risk register : Integration of the aircrash frequency in the informatic calculation model Calculation of the aircrash damage (maximum release of the stored chemical substance) Calculation of the new aircraft risk on the facility Page 26

27 Integration of of the hectare raster of aircrash probability in the cantonal risk register (CRR) The CRR is used to manage the risk calculation data of industrial facilities Numerical models were defined and applied to the release and dispersion calculations for a range of sources of risk for the population Fictious results DigiPolis 2010 Montbéliard 27 mai Page 1

28 A special geomatic interface RCat ArcGIS, makes it possible to import and perform calculations necessary for cartographic risk mapping more efficiently. File exchange between the CRR and the RCat for calculations and map visualizations were implemented. To integrate the aircraft risk calculations, it was necessary to adapt the CRR Oracle database to be the RCat interface Page 1

30 Institutional use of the geneva cantonal risk register DigiPolis 2010 Montbéliard 27 mai 2010 The risk register has become part of the cantonal environmental legislation Chart and process flow of the risk register as other state environmental missions and outputs of well defined risk mapping products Page 30

31 Wrap-up The project achieved : The validation of 21 thematic and global charts Availability of an online information chart for the public (http://www.sitg.ch) Sharing of information among stakeholders (prevention and management of major hazards) Link between major hazards and land use planning practices Accurate financial management by the help of a regional partnership (now 6 swiss cantons) Estimated total cost is Euros 300'000 (60'000 Euros/new layer) Maintenance costs for GIS and Data-Base are Euros 40'000 Euros/year Page 31
